Jeremy L. Goldstein & Associates was born after its founders could not handle a lot of debates in governance settings about executive compensation.

Most of the executive compensation companies that could not handle these challenges withdrew from larger organizations. Jeremy Goldstein and his partner felt that this was a great opportunity to establish their law firm and help deal with such matters.

However, Goldstein does not take all the cases that he and his associates come across. The company chiefly limits itself to executive transactions such as mergers and acquisitions (M&A). He also chooses executive compensation matters that are within his capabilities and his team can handle confidently.

The Jeremy L. Goldstein & Associates has been operating for almost 20 years. This has made it easy for the founders and staff to handle most of the issues at hand. Goldstein says that there is nothing much new in the field and when something fresh arises, it is easy to use his experience and skills to handle the case.

Jeremy Goldstein feels that executive compensation and corporate governance setting is sustainable and stable. A lot of changes have been witnessed in the field and this means compensations teams, corporations and key players can perform their duties without any misgivings.

To be a better lawyer, he advocates companies to build and maintain good relationships with clients. Lawyers should also embrace new technologies to easily solve governance and executive compensation matters.

He also holds a Master of Arts, Arts History from the University of Chicago. He is also a Bachelor of Arts, Art History graduate from the Cornell University.

Before founding his own law firm, Mr. Goldstein was a partner at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz where he focused on executive compensation matters that involved mergers and acquisitions and matters related to corporate governance.
